On Friday, when Bruce Jenner courageously opened up about transitioning into a woman, he sang the praises of one of his children in particular: Kim Kardashian.
Jenner said that of his six kids and four step-kids, Kim was the first to learn his secret after walking in on him wearing women's clothes, and ever since has been the easiest to talk to and most supportive. It seems only fitting that earlier this morning, Kim went on the Today show to share support on behalf of her family.
"I think there is still an adjustment and there's, you know, family therapy," she told host Matt Lauer. "I see reports that say, you know, 'This one doesn't support him,' and, 'This one's over here,' and my mom feels this way. And it's all really so made up."
"We all really support him. Is it a hard adjustment? Yes," she said. "There were lots of family meetings. There was every emotion you can possibly imagine."
And then she showed us the kind of empathy and affection she's showed her step-dad from day one: "Bruce…has the the biggest heart. I'm really happy for him that he's living his life the way he wants to live it. I don't know what life would be like if you always felt like you weren't yourself. As long as he is happy, and he wants to live his life, however he wants to live it, that just makes me happy."
